Re: Happy Constitution Day (Very non-Dead) |
Sign O' The Times:
It's time to say hit the road, Jack. The most popular name for baby boys in much of England, Jack, has now been overtaken by Mohammad. Last year in London, Mohammad beat out second place Daniel. Mohammad is already the top choice for a baby boy in other European capitals: Brussels, Amsterdam Copenhagen, and Oslo. And with over 15 million people named Mohammad, it is in fact the most popular male name in the world.

Re: Happy Constitution Day (Very non-Dead) |
You - and anyone - should read an archived article from the BBC Website that examines a much-viewed - and very false - YouTube video that purports to give the facts about a Muslim population "explosion" the West is supposed to be alarmed by. There's no such thing and Germany will NOT become a Muslim state by 2050. The video claims that in France, 30% of those aged 20 and younger are Muslim, with the birth rate for Muslim families massively exceeding that across all families. It says France will be an Islamic Republic within 39 years. Quelle horreur!
According to the BBC article, "It is the claims made about individual countries that are most striking. The video says that a typical French family has 1.8 children but that French Muslim families have 8.1 children. No source is given for this information and the French government doesn't collect statistics by religion."
Oh. Darn it.
So, all these scary "facts" about how we're doomed - DOOMED! - to live in a Muslim world are just more attempts to stir up the usual blah blah blah. The article says the scary part is that the video has been viewed 10 million times (YIKES!)by people, some of whom probably walk away from it assuming it's factual. I mean, it's YouTube, like those shocking UFO clips. If it's on YouTube, it's real, right? People can't actually tell LIES on the Internet, can they? Don't they have ways to filter out exaggerated claims?

B.Stockwell :I rarely look at You Tubes except for Monte Python ,and I did not know they were people who could even believe You Tubes could be believed in ! A new webbish religion ,maybe ? So called very serious newspapers and europeen agencies claim they are 55 millions muslems in western europe nowaday , butnone of them predict that europe could settle for islam aroud 2050 ,except moslems ,so I heard it said in London . But then men hating women would probably hit it for islam ,I suppose, eventually ,in europe . I can't believe the americas ever going islamic !
